Total Time:

Servings:
15 servings (2 flatbreads and about 1 tablespoon chutney per serving)
Ingredients
-
1 cup all-purpose flour
-
1/4 cup white whole wheat flour or whole wheat flour
-
3 tablespoons granulated sugar*
-
1/4 cup chilled butter, cut up
-
1/4 cup chilled 60 to 70% tub-style vegetable oil spread
-
3/4 cup fresh cranberries
-
1/4 cup dried tart cherries
-
3 tablespoons packed brown sugar*
-
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar or balsamic vinegar
-
2 tablespoons pomegranate juice or cranberry juice
-
1/2 cup fresh or frozen unsweetened red raspberries
-
1/4 cup finely chopped pecans, toasted
Directions
1.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. For shortbreads: In a large bowl, stir together all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, and granulated sugar. Using a pastry blender, cut in butter and vegetable oil spread until mixture resembles fine crumbs and starts to cling. Using your hands, shape the mixture into a ball and knead just until smooth.
2.
Between two pieces of waxed paper, roll dough to a 15x9-inch rectangle, about 1/8 inch thick. Using a pastry wheel or pizza cutter, cut dough into fifteen 3-inch squares. Cut each square diagonally in half to make triangles (30 triangles total). Using a large spatula, carefully transfer triangles to ungreased baking sheets. If dough tears when transferring to the baking sheets, use your fingertips to gently press dough back together.
3.
Bake about 8 minutes or just until edges start to brown. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool.
4.
Meanwhile, for chutney: In a small saucepan, combine cranberries, cherries, brown sugar, vinegar, and pomegranate juice. Bring to boiling, stirring constantly; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, about 5 minutes or until mixture is thickened and liquid is syrupy. Stir in raspberries; remove from heat. Cool to room temperature.
5.
Serve chutney atop shortbreads and sprinkle with pecans.
